The max one can pay into social security per year is $10,453.20.
If you did that every year from age 18 until retirement, the max you’ll get from SS is $4,873 /month.
If you put it into an S&P index fund instead, you would receive $32,583 per month.
Social Security is a scam.

@garonnevik Makes total sense. My grandparents always had 1-2 barn cats on their property to contain the rodent population. It’s an absolute necessity.
@Jason2bartlett Love that you are loving this country! If I were you and could - I’d move out of South Africa. No one should have to live like you are describing.
